關於作者

Everything will be erased in second. The dictionary of words amassed between cradle and deathbed, eliminated. All there will be is silence and no words to say it. Nothing will come out of the open mouth, neither I nor me. Language will continue to put the world into words. In conversation around a holiday table, we will be nothing but first name, increasingly faceless, until we vanish into the vast anonymity of a distant generation. 

(Annie Ernaux, Les Années 《悠悠歲月》, 2008)
